"The report said researchers found belief in God is higher among older people regardless of where they live."There's a shocker. Some people start to believe in God as they get older and can see the "end".

This may certainly be true to an extent but also consider that the older members of society had less access to information growing up (e.g. no internet etc.) and the church was more culturally embedded in society.
